MDM Children’s Village: A Beacon of Hope for Underprivileged Children

Located in the heart of Tiruvannamalai, MDM Children’s Village stands as a testament to the power of compassion and care. Founded on November 6, 2000, by Mr. Carlo Crocco, the visionary Founder of Hublot-Swiss Watches, this haven provides a loving family environment for hundreds of parentless, homeless, abandoned, and street children.

MDM’s Journey of Compassion

MDM has established three havens for underprivileged children:
– MDM Children’s Village, Tiruvannamalai (2000): Our inaugural project, founded by Mr. Carlo Crocco, providing a loving family environment for children aged 4-14 years.
– MDM Boys Home, Tiruvannamalai (2004): Catering to the unique needs of adolescent boys, this home offers specialized care and support for those aged 14-18 years.
– MDM Children Home, Vellore (2007): Providing a safe and nurturing environment for children aged 4-18 years, this home ensures a seamless transition from childhood to adolescence.

Why Vellore: A Critical Hub for Child Protection

Vellore, a city plagued by child trafficking, labor exploitation, and street children, necessitates targeted interventions. Its strategic location as a railway junction and proximity to Andhra Pradesh (just 40 km away) make it a hotspot for child trafficking, forced labor, and begging. The district’s thriving Beedi (country cigarettes) industry, a significant employer in the region, also draws children into exploitative labor practices. Given these pressing concerns, Tdh CORE Trust’s presence in Vellore is crucial. Our organization works tirelessly to safeguard the welfare and rights of vulnerable children, providing essential support and services to those in need.
